Unabashed admission – Chap. 6, Act 3, Strip 42

Uh, yeah…so I ran into a slight pacing problem with today’s strip. Like Mopey, I had really expected the Professor to hem and haw for at least two panels before coming out with the truth: namely, that many decades after already giving his soul to science, he has now aditionally sold it for science.

It was bound to happen, of course, but he could still have shown at least a small bit of remorse. Or just pretended it. ._.
